This one is only about 2 to 2 and a half inches. I've had this girl a while hoping to id her, and didn't even notice until today how she reflects sunlight like that!Originally posted by Ravnos
I think I have the same kind of spider... how big is that one in the pic? Mine doesn't have any iridescence currently, but that is just awesome.

That is a beautiful spider! Is that one of the trapdoors you were talking about on the phone the last time we talked?
All I can saw is WOW!
